Porsche’s sporting elite – the 911 R – more performance, less weight.

As the first comprehensive homage to the R and RS models, this can be a will have to-have for all Porsche 911 lovers. At auctions they rack up premium prices, however the makers of the 911 R never intended to create objects of speculation for maximum profit. Their main concern was once developing vehicles that would appeal to customers on account of their uncompromising sportiness.

The story begins 50 years ago, when the first Porsche 911 R achieved five new long-distance world records in Monza; and goes on to the contemporary 911 R – a car that may be conscious about its history, with racing stripes, houndstooth bucket seats, manual gear change, and a free-revving naturally aspirated engine. In between the first and the contemporary lie 50 years, a lot of models, and a legion of fans.
